Holiday beach vacay
Stay as listed! Easy walk to the beach, seaside, and Publix. Highly recommended for any family vacationing around seaside. Mary was always quick to respond and help with any questions/concerns. It was so helpful to have beach stuff like umbrellas/toys at the house to take to the beach. We hope to stay again next year!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I almost don't want to tell you about it!
Location, location, location. An quaint little cottage within a 5 minute walk to Seagrove beach. The beach was never super crowded, and the house has a few chairs, too. We loved the backyard pool and the comfy couch for a lazy afternoon watching Shark Week. I mean, Publix is only 5 minutes down the road as well! My teens rode the bikes to Seaside one afternoon while I read a novel by the pool. We had a lovely week without a care in the world. Thank you!

Summer Get-Away
This was our second year staying at this property. There were lots of upgrades in the bathrooms and pool from last year. The house is in an amazing location. Close to Seaside, the beach, Publix and places to eat. The host is so generous. There are plenty of beach chairs and umbrellas she graciously lets you use. That helps with packing. The pantry is stocked with little things you might forget. It’s just become our favorite summer get away and we will be rebooking for next year soon.

Second stay - our favorite place!
This was our second year to rent this home and plan to year after year! The bathroom, appliance, and pool updates/upgrades this year were excellent! It’s always so clean and also well stocked as far as pantry/cleaning items, beach chairs/toys, bikes, towels etc. etc. Mary is a very communicative and helpful host. Many memories made here - can’t wait to return!

Girls trip with kids
The location is beautiful. I loved how lush and shady the area is. The pool area was very relaxing, but the pool was filthy because a storm hit the night of our arrival. We tried to clean it, but the nets had holes making it a lost cause. Our friends refused to get in the pool. The proximity to the beach (5 min) and city center (10+) were both lovely walks. The area is very bikable and we found a gorgeous lake area with more activities. If only the bikes were in better condition. I was able to get three bikes operational. Unfortunately, this prevented our two families from exploring together. My children and I made the best of the location by crab hunting at night, riding the trails, boogie boarding and eating at the various restaurants close by. We visited the beach at different times all day long and the pool ended up not being a big deal for us. Their were plenty of beach chairs, blankets, towels and umbrellas for us to use. I loved how cozy and comfortable the house was and we slept well. It was well kept and charming. I spent time on the front porch listening to the birds sing. We would love to visit Seaside again and I would definitely consider this home. This is a great house for families. The owners and local contact were excellent to work with.

Primary Renter
Our stay was absolutely wonderful!!! We typically stay in another house in the area, but because it was already booked, we ended up staying here instead. We were all elated with our choice! From check in to check out & even during our stay, Mary was super helpful & responsive! We loved the house, & the location was perfect! Everything was neat, clean, well-kept & supplied. The ease of access to the beach & to Seaside was perfect with 2 toddlers! During our stay the power went out all on the street & surrounding streets. I reached out, & Mary immediately made a call to find out if it was an isolated case or not. Thankfully, the power was restored within a few hours! Mary called me personally to check on the situation which was completely out of her control, but her responsiveness made the situation better! This property was definitely a favorite of ours, & we would definitely stay again!

Family Visit
We have been coming to Sea Grove Beach for 30 years visiting family who has the luck of living there. My parents stayed in this house for years and this year we were lucky to be able to stay in it! Love the house, pool and location. We brought bikes but there are bikes available with the house. We brought our beach equipment but they have that available also! Also enjoyed that shower in the master bathroom! Can’t wait to come back and stay again!

Beach cottage
Great location, easy walking/ biking to wherever you want to go. This is a small but comfortable beach cottage with everything you could need. Host is very quick to respond. Pool wasn’t heated when we arrived & she made it happen despite it being Easter! She also has everything you could want for the beach which we found very helpful instead of bringing from home or renting. Some older bikes came with the house that my teens were fine with. Brand new locks provided as well. Best for families with young children imo because rooms are small but my teens preferred this house over the large new Watercolor house we rented last year. Used the fold out couch & my son said it was comfortable but very heavy table needs to be moved to use it. My family really enjoyed this house & would enjoy staying there again.

We had a great time with family on this property. It was close walk to the beach and a short drive to all the other attractions. We did have an issue with the fridge, but we were notified ahead of time and it was resolved quickly. Communication was quick and easy with the property manager. Would stay again.

Shady, quiet cottage in great location
We loved our stay at this beach cottage!!! It was a very hot, sunny week and the cottage stayed amazingly cool the whole week. My hot-natured husband and boys really appreciated this! The pool and pavilion out back were amazing, and the walk to the beach very easy. We stopped and got food at the Seagrove Market many times. This was the best equpped beach house I’ve ever stayed in…trash bags, laundry and dish soap, lots of extra pillows and blankets-as well as all the beach chairs and beach toys provided. Would definitely stay here again!

Perfect for families!
We loved our stay at this home! With two boys ages 4 and 6 we were extremely thankful for the pool right in the backyard as they were ready to swim from the moment they woke up bright and early and we were able to swim between the many pop up storms throughout the week instead of getting caught trying to get back from the beach! When we did get to go to the beach, it was an easy short walk to the beach access and it was never super crowded, we could set up our chairs right at the water! The home was spacious, the beds were comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals. When needed, Mary responded to my questions very quickly, but I hardly needed anything because it was all there for us! The beach chairs and toys were much appreciated as well. Loved the location of the home, felt like we were tucked in a quiet neighborhood but still so close to everything. Cannot say enough good things about this home, the Florida weather didn't fully cooperate with us for our week stay, but I was very thankful to have a wonderful property to spend extra time in!
